Built for asset management
Built for asset management firms
Asset management firms operate under a uniquely demanding response burden. The same investor sends the same DDQ every quarter, then again when their consultant changes. The same regulator examines the same operational controls year after year. The same prospect runs three versions of a similar DDQ across the consideration cycle. And the platform that handled it last year is missing the content for this year because the strategy team launched two new products and nobody updated the library.
RocketDocs has been deployed at asset management firms since 1994. The platform reflects what asset management actually needs: multi-affiliate library structure, strategy-level customization, performance data integrations, and an audit trail that supports SEC, CFTC, and FCA examinations alongside regular investor due diligence.
Use cases
Asset management use cases
Investor DDQs
Institutional investors, family offices, fund of funds, and other LPs send DDQs as part of their initial subscription process and again on recurring schedules. RocketDocs library structure supports the recurring nature of these questionnaires, with nearest neighbor searching and the Refresh functionality to enable updates with a click of a button.
ILPA Standardized DDQ
RocketDocs helps teams respond to the Institutional Limited Partners Association Standardized DDQ, drawing answers from your approved content library. When ILPA releases a new version, your team can respond to it the same way.
Regulatory DDQs and examinations
SEC, CFTC, FCA, BaFin, and other regulator-led DDQs and examinations follow recurring patterns that the RocketDocs platform supports. Library structure and workflow templates accelerate response times.
Quarterly investor updates
Quarterly investor reporting follows DDQ-style structures with the same content reused across investors and customized per investor. RocketDocs supports the cadence with templates, placeholders, the Refresh functionality, and approval workflows.
Custom institutional investor DDQs
Many institutional investors send custom DDQs that do not match any standard template. RocketDocs handles these with template configuration during onboarding and intelligent autofill that maps custom wording to your library content.
Vendor DDQs
Asset managers also conduct vendor DDQs on their service providers. RocketDocs supports both sides: responding to investor DDQs and running vendor management programs.
Multi-affiliate
Multi-affiliate support
Most asset management firms are not single-entity. Multi-affiliate firms manage several legal entities, each with its own products, its own compliance posture, and its own SMEs. The same DDQ may be answered three different ways depending on which affiliate is responding. RocketDocs is built for that, with per-affiliate libraries, per-affiliate workflows, and cross-affiliate content reuse configurable based on your firm’s policies.
Strategy-level
Strategy-level customization
Different strategies need different content. A long-only equity strategy answers investor questions differently than a multi-strategy hedge fund, which answers differently than a fixed income team, which answers differently than a private credit fund. RocketDocs library structure supports strategy-level customization within an affiliate, with shared content where it applies and segregation where it does not.
Performance data
Performance data integration
Performance data changes constantly. Quarterly returns, AUM, capacity, and investor share counts are all updated on a regular cadence. Connectors can pull current performance data into DDQ responses, so AUM and returns are always current at the moment of generation. No more manually updating dozens of DDQ responses every quarter.

What customers say
Trusted by the teams whose responses cannot be wrong
The tool itself is very simple and direct. I've trained a lot of people on this and they're like, that's all I have to do? It's the way that RocketDocs works with Word. It's very similar to what they're used to. It's very user friendly.
RocketDocs has competitors in the space. But none of them can do what RapidDocs does. I haven't found any that are as good in product suite. So RapidDocs, from my perspective, is pretty unique. It's a great tool. It can save you time. It can help you to do things a lot easier.
Problems are the same for all RFP teams: finding the correct data at the right time, and organizing data into useful libraries and subtopics. RocketDocs allows us to manage more than 10 different lines of business and keep our data organized and structured.
After over 20 years of using different RFP database management systems, I am impressed with the usability and ease of organization in the system. The speed with which my team can locate and update responses is impressive.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can RocketDocs help us respond to the ILPA Standardized DDQ?
Yes. RocketDocs helps teams respond to the ILPA Standardized DDQ, drawing approved answers from your content library. When ILPA releases a new version, your team can respond to it the same way.
Can different affiliates of our firm have different content libraries?
Yes. Multi-affiliate support is a primary design consideration. Each affiliate can have its own library, its own workflows, and its own SMEs, with cross-affiliate content reuse configurable based on your firm’s policies.
How does RocketDocs handle quarterly investor updates?
Quarterly updates are usually a recurring DDQ project type with the same workflow as the annual DDQ, just with a different cadence. The content library is shared, so updates to approved content automatically flow into the next quarterly cycle. APIs can pull performance data and current AUM figures to replace manual updates.
Can we generate the same DDQ for 50 different investors with personalization?
Yes. Templates with placeholder personalization can generate the same DDQ structure with investor-specific details automatically applied. AUM exposure, side letters, custom commentary, and other investor-specific content can be applied at generation time.
Will my client data, AUM information, or trading activity ever be sent to OpenAI or Anthropic?
No. RocketDocs AI runs on Llama 3.1 hosted inside the RocketDocs environment. Your client data, AUM information, trading activity, and operational details are never sent to any third-party model provider.
How does RocketDocs handle confidential client information in DDQ responses?
Client information is protected through two mechanisms. First, content-level permissions restrict access to sensitive records. Second, our private AI never sends your content to third-party AI providers.
How long does implementation take for an asset management firm?
Most asset management deployments go live in 4 weeks. Multi-affiliate firms with complex structures may take longer because the configuration is deeper. The implementation team includes specialists with asset management experience.
